Good. People have been saying that we are losing the war for a while. "Iraq is sliding into Civil War, etc." We've heard that for months on end. And mostly it's scaremongering. They're generally wrong about us losing the war. We're taking constant, but sustainable, losses. That doesn't mean we're losing the war. Losing the war is taking constant and unsustainable losses. There is a difference.
But taking constant losses is still a problem. It means things aren't getting any better. We are currently just holding our positions. We aren't winning. We aren't going to lose in Iraq unless we lose our will to fight (which may have happened yesterday). But we can't keep doing what we're doing and expect good things to come of it.
We need to change, adapt, and overcome to win. Rumsfeld has been hesitant to do any of that. So he's out. And I don't think many people will miss him.
